Class Experience

US Grade 5 - 8
Want to know all about the Greek Gods and Goddesses?
Welcome to the who’s who of Greek Mythology! We will start where most stories start, at the beginning, with The Primordials and The Titans. We will then spend the next 4 weeks diving into myths about the Olympians. Each week will cover 3-4 of the Greek Olympians. The next week will focus on Hades, Persephone, and The Underworld.
This class will include presentations, discussions, and interactive activities. Students are encouraged to share prior knowledge and ask questions about the topic.
Each week will include videos about the topic, and an interactive activity for students to complete.

Greek Mythology has several instances of mild violence, revenge stories, and having various lovers. I do tone it down for this age group, but these things play a large role in many myths.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I have been studying and learning about Greek Mythology since I was young. I don't have any formal training in it, but I would love to share what I have learned on my own with those who are interested. I spent 6 weeks in Greece visiting major myth landmarks and learning more about the stories in person.
